Give a Shit! Beautiful Relieve composting toilets turn human waste into “humanure” - and provide a more pleasant festival restroom experience! From our 10 composting toilets at Splore we diverted 250kg of fertiliser (for a native plant nursery), and 1200L of urea (agricultural fertiliser). PLUS we save over 1500L of fresh drinking water from waste transportation to the sewage treatment plant thus reducing greenhouse gases (less transport required). We need more composting loos! Can you help us? info@splore.net

Reusables with GlobeletSadly until 2012 we sent over 55,000 single use cups to waste! We decided to introduce a reusable cup called a Globelet. You can grab a Globelet at any places selling cold drinks. Globelets cost $3, and you’ll get a $1 refund when you return it to the Globelet tent. Meanwhile the Splore Globelet story goes on and, since the festival, Splore Globelets have been spotted being reused at family picnics and events all around the motu!

Camp KaitiakiKeep an eye out for our friendly Camp Kaitiaki. These guys and girls are kind of like campsite hosts. They’ll sort you out with some bags for your ‘resources’ (one for recycling and one for compostables) and give you a hand with anything else you might need!

Splore Festival waste minimisation and Leave no Trace initiatives are possible thanks to the continued generous support from Franklin Local Board, Auckland Council.
